Picasso the Dog Has a Deformed Face and Lots of Love to Give

He almost died because of this face—but now he’s ready for a family. You’re not seeing things: Picasso the (corgi? dachshund?) mix was born with deformed facial features. Due to his unique looks, he and his brother Pablo were dumped at a California shelter by a backyard breeder. The pair were on death row when Luvable Dog Rescue swooped in to rescue the bonded pair, and had them shipped to their beautiful facility in Oregon. A Luvable volunteer quickly dubbed the dog ‘Picasso’ and his shy brother ‘Pablo.’

Luvable is currently accepting applications for adoption of Picasso and Pablo with the caveat that they be adopted out together. Picasso will need some teeth extracted to make him more comfortable before he is ready to go to his new family.

Luvable Dog Rescue focuses on helping dogs who need a little extra TLC like Picasso. Donations for medical care can be made to Luvable’s GoFundMe account.
